I think it's an absolute crime that Minnesota doesn't have a Timmys, but Ohio and I think New York have a couple. We're practically Canada!I was in Toronto, ON about 5-6 years ago and 2 of my fondest memories were Steamwhistle Brewery and Tim Hortons coffee and donuts. Makes me want to move to Canada lolI usually just buy Tim Horton's and have it shipped to me. Not quite what you'd call an expert when it comes to coffee, I just like it as a quick pick me up in the mornings.

Hey welcome. Stop by the intro forums and tell us a bit about yourself. What your favorite smokes are and what notMy first post ever on BOTL and it's about coffee and not cigars. Oh well, no one said I was conventional...
Anyway, I actually started roasting my own coffee beans about 5 years ago. For about $5 per pound, I can buy coffee beans that would retail for about $17 per pound. Green beans last a couple of years if they're kept in a dark, dry, and cool place. So, I keep my my beans right beside my Tuperdor in the basement. It's fast, economical, and I like that I can roast to my preferred strength and flavor.
So, yeah, coffee drinker/addict here.

I've got a buddy whos into coffee and I want to grab him some for Christmas. Out of that list or roasters can you recommend one or two that stand out from the rest. If they are price friendly so much the better so I grab him more. Thanks in advance and your help is appreciated!My list of best roasters in the US:

Can't go wrong with any of them really. I personally have an affinity for Intelly since I toured their roasting facility once & was treated like a king when I was there.I've got a buddy whos into coffee and I want to grab him some for Christmas.
